RV 1.71.2

वीळु चिद् दृळ्हा पितरो न उक्थैर् अद्रिं रुजन्न् अङ्गिरसो रवेण । चक्रुर् दिवो बृहतो गातुम् अस्मे अहः स्वर् विविदुः केतुम् उस्राः ॥

vīḷu cid dṛḷhā pitaro na ukthair adriṃ rujann aṅgiraso raveṇa | cakrur divo bṛhato gātum asme ahaḥ svar vividuḥ ketum usrāḥ ||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

Our sires with lauds burst e'en the firm-set fortress, yea, the Angirases, with roar, the mountain. They made for us a way to reach high heaven, they found us day, light, day's sign, beams of morning.

Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
